Kids In The Kitchen is a program that aims to fight food insecurity among youth in Philadelphia. Founded by two Philadelphia-based chefs, Ari Miller and Matthew Harper, the program focuses on educating and empowering young people to cook for themselves and their families.
The program was inspired by the chefs’ experiences working in school kitchens and seeing the need for more food education and access to healthy meals. They believe that teaching children how to cook and prepare meals not only helps them develop important life skills, but also encourages them to make healthier choices and take control of their own nutrition.
Kids In The Kitchen partners with local schools and community organizations to provide hands-on cooking classes and workshops for children of all ages. The program also includes lessons on budgeting, shopping for groceries, and understanding the importance of eating fresh, whole foods.
Through their work, the chefs hope to empower young people to make healthier food choices and to create a positive impact on their communities. They see food as a way to bring people together and to address issues of hunger and food insecurity in Philadelphia.
Kids In The Kitchen has received support from local businesses and organizations, as well as recognition from the Philadelphia community for their efforts to combat food insecurity among youth. The program continues to expand and reach more children in Philadelphia, with the goal of creating a healthier, more food-secure future for all.
